Best of luck to them. Hope all their code turns out to be original and not ripped off other IPs. I suspect that will not be the case.

In short, the settlement heavily favored Daybreak with a permanent shutdown/injunction but imposed no actual cash payment from Takahashi or Taylor at the time of resolution. The $3.5 million is purely a conditional penalty (often described in coverage as a "threat" or "IOU" hanging over them), not money they paid to settle.

The Takahashi party (Kristopher Takahashi and co-defendant Alexander Taylor, operators of the EverQuest emulator "The Heroes' Journey" or THJ) literally paid $0 to Daybreak Game Company LLC to settle the copyright/trademark infringement lawsuit brought against them.

A.I makes code based on the work of the millions of the real coders they were (and continue to be) trained on.
Just like THJ did!
No wait. What?
